Subject: 100 for Justice

Would your organization, or would you individually, like to join over 100 peace and justice organizations and many prominent citizens in proposing that we enforce our laws even when the criminals are big shots?

Go to http://prosecutebushcheney.org or send the name and website of your organization to david@davidswanson.org

Do you know of any major organizations, businesses, cities, towns, political parties, celebrities that you can contact and urge to sign on? Please do so.

And please send an Email to everyone you know asking them to personally sign on at http://prosecutebushcheney.org

Check out who has already signed below. Not bad for the first week, but let's make the second week better!

Statement on Prosecution of Former High Officials

We urge Attorney General Eric Holder to appoint a non-partisan independent Special Counsel to immediately commence a prosecutorial investigation into the most serious alleged crimes of former President George W. Bush, former Vice President Richard B. Cheney, the attorneys formerly employed by the Department of Justice whose memos sought to justify torture, and other former top officials of the Bush Administration.

Our laws, and treaties that under Article VI of our Constitution are the supreme law of the land, require the prosecution of crimes that strong evidence suggests these individuals have committed. Both the former president and the former vice president have confessed to authorizing a torture procedure that is illegal under our law and treaty obligations. The former president has confessed to violating the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act.

We see no need for these prosecutions to be extraordinarily lengthy or costly, and no need to wait for the recommendations of a panel or “truth” commission when substantial evidence of the crimes is already in the public domain. We believe the most effective investigation can be conducted by a prosecutor, and we believe such an investigation should begin immediately.
